My "Port Royale" doesn't work anymore.

Question

I've got the first game "Port Royale" (French/2002). I tried recently to play with, but it doesn't work since I've changed OS. Is it possible to get the same or update to a newer version? My OS is Windows 7, and don't find parameters to make it right. Thanks a lot for your answer.

Answer 1

This is an old game that didn't receive compatibility with Windows 7. In this case, yoyu have two options:

1. Install Windows XP through virtualization if your computer supports it through VirtualBox.

2. Run the application in Compatibility mode. Right click the executable and choose Troubleshoot Compatibility. Choose the settings offered by Windows and then you can launch the game. This isn't guaranteed it will work 100 %.
